80's Music mystery song...help needed!

Hi fellas,

I need you to help me identify an 80's tune. Here are the
facts:

- sounds a bit like The Fixx meets Power Station
- phrases in the song: "Then I had to drive by myself" and
""No more street that I look upon".
- must be from mid-1985 or maybe a tad before.

I know, this is not much, but any tip will be greatly
appreciated.

Oh sorry, I prepared a short excerpt from the song, which
can be downloaded from the following URL:
http://ezshare.de/files-de/148606/Whynot.mp3.html

please choose "Download: Whynot.mp3

Hope for your help, guys...

I dunno what the track is, but there's this subsection in
the Discogs forum where you might get some help.

Dunno if there was a group of that name, earthleakage. I was
thinking the track could be by Heaven 17 or The Fixx
